The competition was tough, but the search for the UK’s most skilful Hitachi operator is now over! Congratulations to Andrew Walker, the 2026 UK champion of the LANDCROS European Operator Challenge! But who will they face in the grand final in September… Switzerland’s operators have also been battling for a place this week! @uk_hitachi #LANDCROS #OperatorChallenge

One Hitachi wheel loader - multiple possibilities. This ZW180-7 changed the game for Baker Groundworks - used with a wide range of attachments, it replaced a telehandler, a couple of 9-tonne dumpers and a smaller excavator! Thanks for challenging the norm and sharing your story! #civilengineering #construction #earthmoving @uk_hitachi

Every great operator knows the feeling, when the machine responds exactly as it should, and the work just flows. That's what the LANDCROS European Operator Challenge is built on. This May and June, excavator operators from across Europe compete at local Hitachi dealer events. @uk_hitachi @ProbstMavegAG

Some call it ‘The Beast’. Some call it ‘Ol Faithful’. Some call it ‘The Reliable Orange’. Turns out, reliability comes in all shapes and sizes. What do you call your machine? #TheReliableOrange #Hitachi #LANDCROS

📙 Old faithful [NOUN inflects] 👉 something that has been used or existed for a long time, and is very reliable. We think it’s the perfect name for the reliable orange machinery 🧡 What do you call yours? #TheReliableOrange #Hitachi #LANDCROS
